On January 5th, 2011, Lily was admitted to the Phoenix Children's Hospital because she was experiencing pain in her legs and back. A week later and after what felt like a million tests, scans and biopsies, we had a diagnosis: she has a soft tissue tumor called Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma. A PET scan revealed a small tumor in her foot that was not apparent from the outside; it was not until the cancer had already spread to her bone marrow that she experienced any symptoms. This came as a total shock to everyone as Lily has always been healthy, active and full of energy. We love our darling girl and her sweet, happy, loving spirit. This website is for friends and family to stay connected during this difficult time.

Hi Alicia~ I've been a friend of your mom's since we were in first grade at Hawthorne. Would you like me to post the information on my Facebook re: the fundraiser this weekend? I would be more than happy to. I've been praying for all of you and that brave girl of yours. I ran across some pictures the other day of you, me and your mom swimming somewhere. You were a little girl and had your hair in pigtails (braids). Let me know. ((Hugs)) Debby Davis 480-688-2169 :-)
